I'm not a big fan of cherries, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try anyway. I was surprised to find that I actually liked it! The cake was moist and the cherries added a nice flavor.

This cake was a bit dry for my taste, but I think that might be because I didn't use fresh cherries. Next time I'll try it with fresh cherries and see if that makes a difference.

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but I think that's just a personal preference. Otherwise, it's a great recipe and I would definitely make it again.
